(e) Make sure not to let the system valves block the air bleeding.
(f) When the brake fluid that flows out of the hose or connector has no bubbles, it means that the air
in the system has been exhausted. There is still air inside the system if the hose inserted into the
brake fluid is still bubbling when pressing down the pedal.
(g) Keep the free end of the hose immerged in the brake fluid to avoid air from flowing into the
system while opening the screw.
(h) While air bleeding, hammer the casting part of the vibrating brake device with a rubber hammer.
This is helpful for removing bubbles deep in the brake fluid.
(i) If air in the master cylinder is suspected, then perform air bleeding on the master cylinder first,
then the wheel cylinder or brake caliper.
(j) When releasing air from the tires, generally make sure to release air out of all the tires.
(k) To avoid the possibility of air reversely entering into the system, a bleeder hose that has a check
valve could be used.
(2) Pressure blow-off
Under the proper conditions, a pressure blow-off device can be used to release the air inside the brake system.
3. Air releasing sequence
(1) Master cylinder air bleeding
If the master cylinder does not have air bleed screws, perform the follo\
wing steps:
(a) Check the brake fluid level inside the master cylinder’s reservoir and add to it if necessary.
(b) Slowly take off the front brake pipe connector until the brake fluid flows out from the end.
(c) Reconnect the brake pipe, but do not tighten it.
(d) Slowly step down and press on the brake pedal, check if the brake fluid flowing out of the connector
contains bubbles.
(e) Tighten the pipe fitting.
(f) Have the assistant loosen the pedal, wait for 15 s.
(g) Repeat the above steps until all the air is released.
(h) Take off the rear brake pipe connector, repeat the above steps.
(2) Wheel brake air releasing
(a) Check the brake fluid level inside the master cylinder’s reservoir and add to it if necessary. During the
entire air releasing period, check repeatedly and add promptly.
(b) Connect one end of the bleeder hose with the bleed screw and the other end immerged in the brake fluid.
(c) Have the assistant step on the pedal several times, raise the pedal gradually until it cannot be stepped on
any more, then forcibly press on the pedal once more.
(d) Loosen the bleed screw, check if there are any bubbles in the brake fluid flowing out. Meanwhile, slowly
lower the pedal.
(e) When the brake pedal is close to the stroke end or the out flowing brake fluid does not have any bubbles,
tighten the bleed screw.
(f) Have the assistant release the pedal and wait for 15 s.
(g) Repeat the above steps until there are no bubbles in the flowing brake fluid when the screw is loosened.
(h) Release the air for all the wheels in turn using the same method.
(i) After releasing the air from the entire system, switch the ignition to the on position.
(j) Inspect the stroke of the brake pedal and its reaction.
(k) Inspect the lighting condition of the brake warning lamp, and repeatedly perform maintenance or air
bleeding if necessary.
( l ) Add brake fluid to the reservoir until the specified fluid level, air bleeding is complete.

The X431 scanner possesses a waveform function. Wheel speed signal error (wheel speed sensor failure)
only appears when intermittent problems occure, such as high speed. When in use, some signal errors may
occasionally appear. Continue observing the waveform to make sure there is nothing abnormal.When driving
the vehicle on a flat and straight road, all four wheels' speed sensor waveform are extremely similar. One can
compare the two front wheels' with the two rear wheels' signal wave at t\
he same time.
Mechanical causes:
Signal gear distortion, loosened hub bearings, smudges on the sensor surface, etc, all may lead to wheel speed
signal intermittency and inaccuracy. Failure examples:
As shown above, once the intermittent failures with the wheel's speed sensor signal are detected, the ABS
control unit records the sensor problems and lights up the warning lamp.\
4. Wheel speed sensor velocity failure (ECU detects an excessive difference between the two wheels'
speed sensor signals).
Possible causes are the gear's wheel speed sensor gap is overly large, or the wheel speed sensor signal is
experiencing interference. For this, first determine which sensor is emitting the signal, and then use failure
three's maintenance methods.
Areas of Importance
1. Sometimes, in order to determine whether there is a common brake system problem or an ABS
problem, the ABS must be terminated by pulling out its ABSECU connector or fuse. At this time the
ABS/EBD loses function as well. On muddy, icy, or snowy roads, the vehicle may fishtail or slide, in
which cases one must be extremely careful to avoid hard braking.
2. The ABS malfunction rate is extremely low, when the brake system shows any problem (before the
warning lamp goes on), first eliminate the normal brake system problems, then consider the ABS mal-
functions.
3. When raining or on gravel, this adjusting process is longer than the standard process, because this
kind of road's unstable adhesion coefficient will lead to a difference between the sliding measurement
and calculation procedures, thus it is necessary to remind drivers to be especially careful when driving
under the circumstances mentioned above.
4. ABSECU Areas of Importance:
(a) The ABSECU is easily damaged from impacts or collisions, thus pay attention to ensure the ECU avoids
such incidents.
(b) High temperature environments can also easily damage the ECU, so when the vehicle undergoes hot paint
work, make sure to first take the ECU out of the vehicle.
(c) When the power switch is ON, do not disassemble the system's electrical elements and wire harness plugs,
in order to avoid damage to the ECU. If removal or installation must be carried out, be sure to disconnect
the ignition switch firstly. When welding components or circuits to the system, the wire harness plug

Areas of importance in circuit maintenance
1. Before operating any electronic devices, and when tools or maintenance devices may easily make
contact with an uncovered electronic terminal, please make sure to turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position, and then disconnect the battery's negative cable to avoid injury or vehicle damage. When the
ignition switch is on the ON position, please do not disconnect the battery's connecting wire or take out
the power's fuse, regardless if the engine is running or not.Otherwise it would seriously damage the
ECU and related microelectronic devices such as sensors.
2. When changing the fuse, please make sure that the new fuse possesses the proper current rating,
and is not above or below this rating.
3. When repairing the wire harnesses of the airbag and pretensioner, only specified contact points,
plugs, and wires are allowed to be used.
4. Before repairing the wire harness, make sure to eliminate any factor that might cause damage,
for example, the edge of a vehicle body part is too sharp, or the used electronics are damaged or
corroded.
5. Shielded wire should not be repaired, it must be replaced entirely once it is damaged.
6. Unless it is specified during the test, please do not use an analog multimeter to test the ECU and
sensor, instead use a high-impedance digital multimeter (internal resistance should be ≥10 kΩ) or a
vehicle multimeter for inspection.
7. When inspecting the connector with a digital multimeter, take the waterproof rubber cover off the
connector, and tightly insert the test pen along the connecting terminal. Don't use too much force, as
to avoid cracking the connector.
Circuit inspection steps
The principle of troubleshooting is to confirm the "possible cause". Once the possible cause is confirmed, the
components that need to be inspected are limited to the components that are related to the possible cause. The
confirmed possible cause should be based on theory and be supported by facts, but not just by intuition. If
one tries to solve the problem but does not adopt the proper troubleshooting steps, it may make the problem
worse. Then the possible cause not only can't be confirmed, but also maintenance can't be performed properly.
Troubleshooting should adhere to the four steps below:
1. Observe the symptoms carefully, inspect if there is anything else abnormal, and record it.
2. While confirming the possible causes, study the circuit diagram carefully, and regard it as a whole
system in order to understand the circuit. Thorough knowledge of switches, relays, and other
electronic components is obligatory for proper analysis.
3. Inspect and eliminate the problems one by one until the cause is found.
4. After the malfunction is fixed, make sure to check if the inspected system is working properly, and also
check if the maintenance may have caused any new problems.
